Consumer Information about Mortgages

If you are currently renting an apartment / dwelling, or are a first time home buyer starting to think about moving from a renter to an owner of your own property, it is important to get as much consumer information about mortgages as possible. You may want to visit the Government of Canada’s Consumer Information web site.

Once there, you can select from the many resources on the left panel, such as the ‘Housing’ one. When on the housing page, you will see a list of options related to the housing industry. The ‘mortgage’ link is a good one to check out, especially if you are considering in buying your first home and want to have access to a variety of Government resources related to mortgages.
